Sleep health is a major public health concern because of its correlation with physical and mental health, and it may be particularly altered in medical students. This study aims: i) to examine the sleep characteristics of French medical students and their knowledge about basic sleep hygiene rules and; ii) to examine the correlations between sleep quality and academic performances, as well as between sleep quality and sleep knowledge.
Students from 4th, 5th and 6th years of medicine, of the Faculty of Paris Diderot, voluntarily responded to an online questionnaire including PSQI and multiple-choice quizzes (MCQ) about basic sleep hygiene rules.
From the 177 participants, 49.7% had a poor sleep (PSQI>5). Regarding sleep latency, 44.6% needed>30min to fall asleep at least once a week, 26.5% slept 6 hours or less by night, 42.4% of them qualified their sleep quality as bad or very bad. A serious lack of knowledge about basic sleep hygiene rules was observed, with an average score at the MCQ of 6.61/10, and only 31% of medical students were aware of basic good sleep habits. Significant correlations were observed between sleep efficiency and all academic mean scores (both regarding the morning, afternoon, and pooled mean scores), and between sleep disturbances and the morning mean score.
French medical students have a poor sleep quality, correlating with academic performances, and present a poor knowledge of basic sleep rules. These findings are a call to improve medical training schedules and to develop prevention and training programs.
睡眠健康因其与身心健康的相关性而成为一个主要的公共卫生问题，医学生的睡眠健康可能尤其会受到影响。本研究旨在：i）调查法国医学生的睡眠特征及其对基本睡眠卫生规则的了解；ii）研究睡眠质量与学业成绩之间以及睡眠质量与睡眠知识之间的相关性。
巴黎狄德罗大学医学院4、5、6年级的学生自愿回答一份在线问卷，问卷包括匹兹堡睡眠质量指数（PSQI）以及关于基本睡眠卫生规则的多项选择题测验（MCQ）。
在177名参与者中，49.7%的人睡眠质量较差（PSQI>5）。关于入睡潜伏期，44.6%的人每周至少有一次入睡需要>30分钟，26.5%的人夜间睡眠时间为6小时或更短，42.4%的人认为自己的睡眠质量差或非常差。观察到医学生对基本睡眠卫生规则严重缺乏了解，MCQ平均得分为6.61/10，只有31%的医学生了解基本的良好睡眠习惯。睡眠效率与所有学业平均成绩（包括上午、下午和综合平均成绩）之间以及睡眠障碍与上午平均成绩之间存在显著相关性。
法国医学生睡眠质量较差，与学业成绩相关，且对基本睡眠规则了解不足。这些发现呼吁改进医学培训计划，并制定预防和培训项目。
